Oh my boat can safely float
In the teeth of wind and weather
And out-sail the fastest hooker
Between Galway and Kinsale
When the white rim of the ocean
And the wild waves rush together
Oh she rides in her pride
Like a sea bird in a gale
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
When she's loaded down with fish
Till the water lips the gunwale
Not a drop she'll take aboard her
That would wash a fly away
From the fleet she speeds out quickly
Like a greyhound from her kennel
Till she lands her silvery store
The first on old Kinvara Quay
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
There's light shines out afar
And it keeps me from dismaying
When the clouds are ink above us
And the sea runs white with foam
In a cot in Connemara
There's a wife and wee ones praying
To the One who walked the waters once
To bring us safely home
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
Yeehaa!
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
She's neat oh she's sweet She's a beauty in every line
The queen of Connemara is this bounding barque of mine
